Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Just rebuilt the carb on a nice old Honda HS35 I picked up cheap atr a garage sale. I know they are suppose to run fairly high RPMs but this one seems very extreeme. Starts easy on the first pull but there seems to be no self flutter or regulation to the top side RPM. I am not positive I have the springs set up correctly on the lever that i think should balance the idle based on load. Or  I could be wrong. I live in michigan and I was going to give this to my fatherinlaw but I am afraid if he picke up a walnut off his driveway this thing would send it into orbit!!!.

Any advice or schematics would be appreciated.

Thanks,

RB
